"Uh, uh..." Li Hongfeng felt a bit awkward hearing this.

Lv Ping was ready to ask for a lot.

Chen Ziran couldn't stand it anymore: "Mom, this was given by Ye Guichen, you didn't want it at all, when did it become yours?"

Lv Ping glared fiercely at Chen Ziran: "You ungrateful girl, what do you know? Since it was given to us, of course, it's ours."

Chen Ziran felt frustrated, she didn't expect her mother to be so unreasonable.

"Well, why not sell a bit to Mr. Li," Chen Guanghui finally spoke.

Although the tea leaves were precious, getting acquainted with someone of Li Hongfeng's status was their good fortune.

"No, it's too cheap," Lv Ping wouldn't agree.

"Five hundred thousand, per gram." Li Hongfeng gritted his teeth, looking earnest, "Please part with a bit, I beg you."

Gasp!

Five hundred thousand?

Lv Ping's hands started trembling.

Chen Ziran couldn't hold back anymore, she snatched the tea leaves and handed them to Li Hongfeng: "Mr. Li, you are too polite. If you want, I can give you a few grams for free."

As she spoke, she took out a small bag and filled it with several grams.

Li Hongfeng immediately acted as if he was holding a treasure, thanking Chen Ziran profusely.

Lv Ping jumped up: "Hey, Chen Ziran, your wings have really hardened, those few grams are worth tens of thousands!"

Chen Ziran ignored Lv Ping and handed the tea leaves to Chen Guanghui: "Dad, keep them yourself, don't let Mom sell them."

Saying this, she felt extremely peculiar, and looking at Ye Guichen again, it seemed as if he had foreseen all of this.

"How did this guy get such tea leaves?"

Li Hongfeng was satisfied, he moved to the side, looking and smelling the tea leaves in his hand contentedly, his smile never leaving his face.

Zhao Lan's face changed, snorting: "What's so great about it? It's just a case of a blind cat finding a dead mouse, getting such tea leaves, so what? Even if it's the best tea leaves, giving a worthless bracelet, that boy is simply insulting your aunt."

Zhao Lan's words immediately shifted everyone's attention to the bracelet.

At this time, Zhou Huai'an was examining the bracelet with a magnifying glass, shaking his head and sighing.

Zhao Lan felt assured seeing this: "Mr. Zhou, what's the matter, isn't this just a piece of worthless metal?"

Zhou Huai'an straightened up, with a regretful expression: "Well, not to that extent. Although the color isn't top-notch, it's well-preserved, worth a few million easily."

"Whoa!"

With Zhou Huai'an's words, Zhao Lan almost bit her tongue: "Mr. Zhou, then why were you shaking your head just now?"

"Oh, I just regretted not seeing this bracelet earlier."

"Gah!" Zhao Lan almost spat blood.

Lv Ping grabbed Zhou Huai'an's arm tightly: "Mr. Zhou, did you say this piece of metal is worth millions, are you serious?"

Zhou Huai'an said seriously: "Metal? Madam, you must be joking, this is genuine emerald, at least a few hundred years old."

"Emerald?" Everyone was puzzled: "This clearly looks like a piece of metal, how can it be jade?"

Zhou Huai'an waved a hand: "Bring me a cup of hot water."

Chen Guanghui quickly brought a basin of hot water.

Zhou Huai'an didn't hesitate, carefully placing the bracelet into the hot water.

Soon, the metal-like layers around the bracelet seemed to peel off in the hot water, revealing a glittering jade bracelet. Even those who didn't understand bracelets could immediately see its value.

"Is this really a jade bracelet?" Lv Ping was ecstatic, disregarding the heat, snatching it and eagerly putting it on her wrist.

Seeing Lv Ping's actions, Chen Ziran secretly shook her head but became even more curious about Ye Guichen.

"Uh, I..." Chen Ziran looked at Ye Guichen with a humble expression, wanting to refuse such an expensive gift, but Ye Guichen said: "We are family after all, ha-ha, I didn't expect these two items to be so valuable. Since I gave them to Uncle and Aunt, they naturally belong to Uncle and Aunt."

"Exactly, once given, there's no reason to take it back." Lv Ping feared Ye Guichen would take back the gifts knowing their value, she felt relieved hearing this.

Both Li Hongfeng and Zhou Huai'an now realized these items belonged to Ye Guichen, and they became interested in him.

"Young brother, where did you get these two items?" Zhou Huai'an asked cautiously.

"Oh, I had a friend buy them, I'm not sure where they came from," Ye Guichen answered honestly.

Zhou Huai'an urgently asked: "Could you introduce us to your friend?"

"Her? Forget it." Ye Guichen thought for a moment and still rejected.

He couldn't be bothered.

Zhou Huai'an and Li Hongfeng were a bit disappointed, nodding: "Alright then, young brother, if you get good items like these in the future, you can find me at Antiquities Street. My name is Zhou Huai'an."

As he spoke, Zhou Huai'an handed a business card to Ye Guichen: "If there's nothing else, we'll take our leave."

As they walked out of the building, Zhou Huai'an sighed deeply: "Such a pity."

Li Hongfeng looked at Zhou Huai'an oddly: "Pity for what?"

"Chairman Li, didn't you notice? When I asked the young brother if he could introduce his friend, he hesitated."

Li Hongfeng was puzzled: "So what's the pity in that?"

"For some reason, I sensed arrogance in his eyes, as if his friend's status was below his own."

"Below his own?"

"Yes, usually people are excited to see us, but he had such pricey items yet didn't show any emotion. I feel that young man is not simple," Zhou Huai'an said as he walked towards the exit: "Too bad, it seemed he wasn't interested in getting to know us."

Li Hongfeng nodded thoughtfully.

...

Inside the house.

Zhao Lan felt like she was sitting on pins and needles.

This time inviting Tian Chengen, apart from showing off to the Chen Family, it was also for Tian Chengen's marriage.

After all, marrying Chen Ziran meant building ties with the Chen Family, which would definitely benefit Tian Chengen's career.

Unexpectedly, Tian Chengen spent tens of thousands but was still outmatched by Ye Guichen.

Looking at the food on the table, Zhao Lan had no appetite.

"Didn't expect a poor boy from the countryside to bring such expensive items, he really got lucky," Zhao Lan said sarcastically.

As the saying goes, once you've taken someone's hand, it's hard to be harsh against them. Though she still didn't like Ye Guichen, she found it improper to chase him away after accepting his gifts.

"Yes, some people can have short-term luck, but it's impossible to be lucky for life," Lv Ping hinted.

She thought like Zhao Lan, believing Ye Guichen had just gotten lucky, finding a jade bracelet and tribute tea.
